Road Warrior
Other Musings, Travel December 18th, 2007As a swimmer, I quickly found out that exercising while on the road was not going to be easy. Sure, hotels have pools but they are almost never long enough to actually do a proper swim workout or if they are the right length, they are usually outdoors in warm climates and the water is too warm (one exception: The Four Seasons Hualani, 25 meters and perfect temperature). So I reluctantly became a treadmill person. At first I was bored out of my mind but then I was told about iTrain – workouts you download into an iPod. The treadmill workouts rock. They’re led by Grace Lazenby who, at first, I thought was insane but since I’ve seen major improvements and made some serious progress I will just say that while she *might* be insane in her expectations her workouts work. And all I need is my gear and a treadmill, which can be found basically anywhere. And at the aforementioned Hualani, that treadmill was outdoors. Heaven!
